About
The Budget and Finance Workgroup supports the Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) in achieving the goals established in the Chesapeake Watershed Agreement by serving as a focal point for coordination, innovation, and accurate reporting related to budgeting and program finance. The Workgroup provides support and assistance to CBP partners related to sources of information useful in identifying existing resources, gaps in those resources, and opportunities to align resources for CBP Outcomes including key sources, such as federal and jurisdiction agencies. The Workgroup also helps with coordinating the appropriate partnership response to requests for accurate, consistently-reported budget and funding information to support partnership needs such as the Chesapeake Bay Accountability and Recovery Act (CBARA), work plans, and data needed to support accountability products.
